Depends, eeling (that is still a good eel stick) I'd say the Calcutta400 but for plugging distance, a TUNED Mag Elite might be the way to go. The Calcutta is a more solid reel in my opinion but a MagElite with the goodies ain't shabby either, and parts are fairly easy to get if it does break... The tuned ME is with ceramic bearings and Penn HT100 drags trimmed & tossed in. I'm almost too afraid to get a set of ceramics for the Calcutta....

If I HAD to choose (I've been staring at the screen for 60 seconds trying to make up my mind)? Lately, I just might go with the CS MagElite AFTER the goodies... Stock from the box is no question the Calcutta 400...
